Back Pain Care in Shailer Park

Millions of Australians deal with back pain every year, which is one of the most common reasons people seek chiropractic care. Whether it’s a dull ache or a sharp, debilitating pain, this type of discomfort can sideline people from their everyday activities and the things they enjoy most.

What Are the Common Causes?

Back pain can arise from various sources:

  • Sedentary lifestyle and poor posture
  • Improper lifting techniques
  • Sports injuries or overexertion during exercise
  • Spasmodic conditions or muscle strains
  • Facet joint irritation
  • In some cases, disc problems or nerve issues

The Impact on Daily Life

Back discomfort can significantly disrupt your routine. It can make simple tasks like sitting, standing, or bending over challenging. For some, it affects sleep quality or the ability to exercise. Understanding the cause and getting proper care is crucial for maintaining your quality of life.

Do I need to avoid certain activities?

Dr Luke (Chiropractor) will guide you on movements that are okay to perform and those that may need modification to prevent aggravating your condition.
